heavy the soul

a burden on the mind

and harsh on the spirit

every cell, every molecule

screaming out in torture

every single moment alone

reuniting is bittersweet

the pain of pure joy

biting at every breath

clear days and foggy nights

happiness is fleeting and fluid

emotions are trials

sucking away at your consciousness

draining your very being

replenishing momentarily

then slipping away again

holding onto sanity is a fantasy

though not far-fetched

hopes are naive and reality smarts

one second,one moment

just you, me, and all that possesses life

an overflowing swell of love

flooding the senses

washing away the impurities of existence

bound by feelings so intense

they are tangible

you can touch them with your fingertips

and caress them with your palms

then vanishing just as soon

leaving emptiness behind

up again, down again

as time drifts by

the rules are sometimes broken

and the boundaries are uncertain

regret is often inevitable

but we still exist.
